PathogenicP

The variant received 2 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PM2

The NM_020843.4(SCAPER):c.3818G>A (p.Cys1273Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 7.51). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (★).
